Due diligence had commenced on the concessions before the acquisition agreementwith Continental was signed and it was hoped that the final agreement andaccompanying circular would have been despatched by now.

In the meantime, we understand that commencement of development work onContinental's concessions is imminent. The Board is confident that 2006 will be an exciting time for the Company andwish its proposed new management every success over the coming year.
